Ector County · Cowden North field · Vertical
Holt Fay #13 (API 42-135-31669) is a well in Ector County operated by Oxy USA Inc., completed July 6, 1975.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 14, 1992, permitted to 5,500 ft.
It was permitted by Arco Oil & Gas CO. and has since transferred to Oxy USA Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including San Andres, Holt, Glorieta.
Its 3 leases have reported 101M barrels of oil and 44.4M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 1,667 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
It holds an active disposal or injection permit, with 387K barrels injected in the 12 months reported through November 2025.
